Back in November, it was announced that the American company that makes Twinkies was going under. For a while there, it looked like our south of the border friends might have to make do without their sugary cream-filled pastry tubes, but HALLELUJAH! Investors have taken over the production of Twinkies, and they're looking for a new celebrity face to represent the product.
Apparently, one of the ideas for a new mascot is comedian Zach Galifiniakis... which is an odd choice, but OK?
All of this got me thinking - what Canadian indie artist product endorsements would you like to see? Who would be good at promoting your favourite foods? Whose face would you trust on a package of boxer briefs, or slapped on the side of a riding lawn mower, or smiling and tossing their hair on an ad for shampoo?
Personally, I'd go for Corb Lund promoting corn on the cob. It'd be Corb on the Corb!
